CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Umika Trading Ltd runs Ambika Lodge Care Home, a nursing home in Canvey Island, Essex with room for 21 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability and people with a sensory impairment.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in August 2026. 89% of homes in Essex also score 5. Across Essex, 84% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Of the 5 closest rated homes, none is rated above it. Umika Trading Ltd runs 4 care homes, and all 4 rated are Good or Outstanding.
Its CQC rating, from April 2021, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in September 2018. At over 5 years old, this rating is older than most. 48% of ratings in Essex are as old (how rating age varies by council).
